* Properly end a sentence instead of using a displayed example to dodge
that responsibility.
* Use `PP` instead of `IP` to inset the example, and do so within in the
`RS`/`RE` region instead of outside it. With no paragraph tag, it can
be difficult to reason about how `RS` and `IP` interact.

In June 1999, \fIxterm\fP provided an extension to the standard control
sequence for clearing the screen.
Rather than clearing just the visible part of the screen using
-.IP
.RS 8
+.PP
.EX
printf \*'\e033[2J\*'
.EE
.RE
.IP
one could clear the scrollback buffer using
-.IP
.RS 8
+.PP
.EX
printf \*'\e033[\fB3\fPJ\*'
.EE
.RE
.IP
+instead.
\*(``XTerm Control Sequences\fP\*('' documents this feature as
originating with \fIxterm\fP.
